Neat trick, windows 7/Vista "God" mode
Maybe it's old but i read about it today. It sounded like a joke when i read about it, but it works!
Just create a new folder in your desktop exactly named: GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C} It will create a new admin panel where you can control and tweak all the Windows 7/Vista features, insted of having to go to each different panel. I have tested it in Windows 7 64 bit and works perfectly. NOTE: don't try this in Vista 64 bit, TLK has said it broke something on his system.

I think calling it "God" mode is a bit over the top. If it gave you full access to the coding (aka, open sourced it) then it would be worthy of that name.
edit: Never heard of it though. If I get a new box sometime soon I will have Win7 on part of it and will check it out.

Don't try this in Vista 64-bit. I'm still trying to fix it.

Here's the easy fix from Yahoo... Another way which is easier (no need to go to safe mode) is: - Open Task manager (using Cltrl+Alt+Delete) - Click on menu File ->Open task - Type regedit and Enter to open Registry Editor - Search for the key word ED7BA470 - Delete this key and close Registry Editor - Restart Windows Explorer and everything is back to normal ![]() |
